Tubing Reclamation

DistributionNOW’s tubing reclamation solutions are designed to help our customers manage the challenges associated with surplus and scrap material, including handling, inspection, repair, coating, lining, and redistribution.

Challenges

We realize that managing pipe and tubing is not a core business activity for most of our customers. DNOW works with them to tackle these challenges:

Multiple material transfers

Administrative overhead

Carrying cost of inventory

Material write-offs and write-downs

Material management

Sale of rejected material

Paying taxes on idle inventory

Data retention for SOX audits

Solutions

Our tubing reclamation services are intended to remove some of the burden of surplus and scrap material management from our customers. We can facilitate the following:

Visual inspection and classification of material on-site

Full-length drift of material to check internal clearances

Thread inspection and repair, when possible

Holding of surplus material until it is needed

Ensuring that only materials meeting your inspection criteria are made available for reuse
